This exhibition illustrates the development of Chinese design and architecture during the last decade. This event is an opportunity to discover the Chinese avant-garde in architecture, design and town planning. The exhibition shows five aspects of Chinese cities and architecture: living architecture is represented by recent or current projects; digital architecture shows the cities and expressions of the future; video presentations show computer-generated images and films focusing on buildings or towns; installation art and sound art produced in close collaboration with architects and artists from various fields give a varied perspective of the towns. All this shows the exceptional diversity of urban architecture. Largely influenced by Rem Koolhaas and Steven Holl, the Chinese architects and artists of our time are the pioneers of the architecture and design of China, reacting to the changing society that surrounds them.
